Book excerpt: THUS runs the tale: -- In former days the Holy One, the Most High, enthroned in his own sphere was reclining on his full-blown lotus couch surrounded by Indra and the other gods; and on a certain occasion he was holding a session, framing questions on the lore of Brahma and enjoying other blameless discussions. As he so sate, adored of the three worlds, the Prajapatis headed by Manu, Daksa, and Caksusa, and all the great sages with the seven Risis worshipped him. Some in chorus chanted the Rik hymns apt for psalmody; some recited the Yajus sentences of worship; some sang aloud the Samanstrains of praise. Others rehearsed the Mantras that reveal the ritual of the sacrifice. And there, arising from the differences of their studies, quarrels one with another we heard among them

Download or read book In the Shadow of Giants written by Prashant Srivastava and published by WebGuruCool. This book was released on 2022-02-20 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When we think of the great dynasties, that ruled in ancient India, the first to come to mind are the Maurya (circa 324 BC - 187 BC) and the Imperial Gupta (circa 319 AD - 550 AD) dynasties. The Imperial Guptas were fortunate, in that they had a succession of great rulers - Chandragupta I the founder, Samudragupta the empire builder, Chandragupta II the conqueror of the Sakas, Kumaragupta I the able administrator, and Skandagupta the vanquisher of the Hunas. In the present work, I have tried to present an outline of the history of those later contemporaries and successors of the Imperial Guptas, who have been cursed to live in the shadow of the Imperial Gupta giants. These include the Aulikaras, Hunas, Vakatakas, Nalas, Sarabhapuriyas, Later Guptas, Maukharis, Pushpabhutis, Sasanka of Gauda, and Yasovarman of Kanauj. In this selection, I have left myself open to accusations of commission and omission; but that, I feel, is the author's prerogative, not easily to be trifled with. I wish to put on record, my thanks to Prof K K Thaplyal, for always being there for me. A word of gratitude is due the readers of WebGuruCool Indological Studies 1, for their overwhelming response. My family (Nidhi, Kumar Aishvarya, Pratichi, and Purvi) and my students took a great interest in the preparation of this work, and helped me complete it in double the time it would otherwise have taken. I dedicate this book to the newest addition to my very own Olympus, my son-in-law, Kumar Aishvarya.
